I open my eyes. The feeling of fatigue and grogginess hits me slowly. I was laying on my side, with arms wrapped around my naked body. The feeling of someone else breathing against me brought me back to reality. I moved slightly under the covers. The grip of my partner tightening.

"Good morning." He mumbles softly against my head.

"Good morning." I say and turn to face him. He opens his eyes slowly and yawns. "Ew morning breath." I say and cover his mouth. He smiles.

"So." He says and pulls me closer to him.

"Its gross." I mumble as my hand slides to his jaw. "Besides, I can't kiss you." Pouting, I look at him.

"You sure?" He asks and smiles as he leans in.

"Noooooo Jordan, no morning breath!" I giggle as he attacks my neck with small kisses. He starts to move slightly with me following his movement. He ended up hovering over me and looking down at me.

"Please? Just one kiss." He asks as he leans down to kiss my neck and jawline. I giggle and stroke his hair.

"Yeah yeah, I'm just teasing." I say as he starts to make a trail towards my lips. He locks his lips with mine. Passionately, he holds me in place gently. I grip his hair and push him in more. My mouth opens one more time, feeling his tongue start to squirm inside my mouth. My hands start to roam his back, feeling every scratch mark I left behind. His hands start to explore my thighs. Gently groping them, as he slowly pushes them apart. I pull away. "No morning sex." I say, closing my legs together.

"Damn, why not?" He asks as he starts to make small circles in my inner thighs.

"Do you wanna check your trash can?" I ask and point to it. "We are out of condoms dumbass." He turns to the trash can to see how evident my statement was.

"Shit." He sighs and decides to lay next to me. I look over at him.

"Who's fault is that?" I ask and snickered. "What did I tell you last night." I say as I cuddled up to his body.

"Ah~Jordan faster!" He mocked as he laughed. I blushed and looked at him.

"I didn't mean that." I mumble, "I meant the other thing."

"Yeah yeah I knew what you meant." He sighs and strokes my hair. "What time do you want to head home?" He asks.

"Whenever, just hope my mom doesn't kill me." I close my eyes, as I was getting tired again. "I told her I came to study and I ended up staying over."

"We did study. We studied anatomy."

I roll my eyes and close them as the stroking of my hair was starting to soothe me, making me tired once again.
------
I pull up to the parking lot of the school. The movement of people and life came into view. I park my car and sit on my seat for a bit. I check the time and see I still have 15 minutes before I have to head to class. So I decide to put my head on the steering wheel; as my eyes close.

I don't want to be here.

I sigh as my phone starts to ring. The vibration is coming from my backpack. I look over, reach into my bag and start looking for it.

'Babe 😭💕'

❌ ✖️

Did I seriously forget to delete his number?

I sigh and decline the call. Quickly, I delete his number and block it.

"You were sobbing so much this weekend that you forget to delete his number." Chara snickers.

"Shut it." I mumble and grab my things ready to get out my car. Quickly I get out and immediately hear chatting, a little to much for the morning. "Ugh so loud." I lock the car and start to head to the entrance of the school.

"Is it really him!?" I hear someone say. I turn around and see the girl pulling her friend toward a crowd of people.

"What the hell?" I mumble with confusion. I look over trying to figure out who is the special guest; as my phone starts to ring.

'Mettaton👅~'

Oh fuck me

I had completely forgotten about him the past few days. Especially that today is his first day. I facepalm and accept the call.

"Morning Mettatton." I turn back to the crowd of people with a small sigh.

"Darling I need some help please!" I hear from the other line; the screaming of fans. I pinch the bridge of my nose and continue walking towards the crowd of people.

"You know you should've done better at hiding your presence." I mumble into the phone. "By chance is anyone else with you?" I ask as I look around for any of my other friends.

"Just me darling." He says. I continue walking as I approach the crowd; pushing through I get to the front of the crowd and see they were huddling against the window of the limousine. A few body guards trying to push some fans away. I look at the guards and let me pass them. I press myself up against the glass and look at him.

"You are so stupid you know that?" I say and hang up. Quickly I open the car door and enter. The people behind me screaming their lungs out.

"Darling I'm so sorry." Mettaton exclaims. "I was trying to reach you the past few days but nothing." He says worriedly. "Is there some tea you need to spill? Did something happened?"

Right

"Well I have time. I don't really care being late to class." I mumble dryly. I start to tell the story of what happened the past few days.
------
I finish up my story with teary eyes; quickly wiping them away.

"It's whate-"

"That asshole!" Mettaton exclaims with a hug of affection. I didn't push him off, instead just let him proceed.

"Well I've been crying and I don't wanna cry anymore. So please can we drop the subject." I ask and look over at him. He let's go and sighs.

"Darling," he pauses for a second. "Okay maybe when you're ready." He places his head on my shoulder and looks at the window.

"Looks like people are starting to leave." I say and look at him. "We still have to pass by and get your schedule." He nods and grabs his backpack from the side. It was a pastel pink with small microphone pins, and some Mettaton pins. The limo door opens as one of the security guards peeks in.

"The coast is clear." He reassures. I look at Mettaton one more time and head out. The school was now quiet.

"Will you be my guide today Y/n?" Mettaton asks curiously. I shrug and continue walking.

"We could ask and see if I can." I say, "I can give you a ride home after school."

Mettaton thought for a second. The silence was loud as our feet hit the pavement. "I would like that." He response and we continue down the hall. I was leading us to the main office. Once at the door, I check the time. Its been 15 minutes since class started. I sigh and open the door. I get to the front desk and ask to see the principal. The lady points with her pen to the direction of the office, I say thank you and head on my way.

"Eek! I'm so nervous!" Mettaton exclaims. We appoarch the office and I knock lightly on the door. As I hear a come in from the other side. I open the door with Mettaton following behind.

"Hello there you guys. How can I hel-" The principal looks from his computer and notices Mettaton. "Oh! Mettaton I presume you're here for your information." He smiles and brings out a sheet of paper. "Okay so I'm quickly gonna go over a few things before sending you on your way."
------
We head out the office with Mettaton's schedule in hand. We still have a good 45 minutes before first period is over.

"Do you wanna head to your first class?" I ask as we continue down the hall. "Let me see what you have." I say as Mettaton lets me see his schedule.

"Do we have class together?" He asks.

"I don't think so-" I pause as I scan the schedule. "Oh wait we do. Its 4th period english." I nod as Mettaton hugs me. "We should head to your 1st period." We continue down the hall as I look for Mettaton's classroom. The rest of the walk was slient as we appoarch the classroom. It was closed thankfully.

"Okay after class do you want me to meet you here?" I ask as I grab the door handle.

"Sure!" He exclaims in reponse. I open the door and see the teacher looking at me as I enter. The classroom fell slient as they stared at me and the superstar enter the room.

"Oh my gosh!"

"Holy shi-"

"No fricking way!"

Students start to exclaim and squeal. I sigh and see the teacher appoarch us.

"Everyone settle down!" The teacher says. I scan the room and see Jazz was sitting there in the back corner; probably internally squealing. I bring my attention back to the teacher as she sighs and heads out the classroom, signaling us to follow her. The yelling and squealing continues as we exit the classroom. The door shuts loudly. "Mettaton I presume?" The teacher says.

"Yes! Mrs uh- crap where's my schedule." Mettaton franticly says as he looks for the schedule.

"Its in your hand." I say as I face plam.

"The name is Mrs. Denver." The teacher says. Mettaton nods and clenchs his schedule so he won't lose it. "Alright please just don't attract attention, and please stay after class so I can get you caught up with a couple of things." She says as she turns to head inside.

"Oh before you go Mrs. Denver!" I say before she grabs the handle and turns to face me slightly. "Can you maybe sit him near or next to Jazz, they know eachother. She could be helpful through the semester." I say as she sighs and signals Mettaton to come in. He squeals and follows her as she opens the door. The yelling and screaming got louder then earlier. I turn to head on my way to at least the last bit of class to get my homework. I continue to the other side of the school. Almost entering the hallway where my class is. I feel that my wrist gets tug by someone. I turn around with annoyance written all over my face.

It's Jordan.

"Let go!" I say and yank my wrist out his grip. "What the fuck is your problem?" I say and continue walking my way.

"I need to talk to you!" He says and stands in front of me. "Please! I called you and looked for you. I couldn't find you so I-"

"Well what do you expect? That I'm gonna forgive you? All of sudden and just forget what happened?" I interrupt him mid sentence. I push him out the way and continue down the hall towards my class. My eyes get teary again. "Dipshit." I mumble loud enough for him to hear me.

Fuck

I feel him grab me again this time pulling me against him. Suddenly as if lightning struck, his lips were against mine. He held me in place, gently moving his lips with mine. Though I fell frozen, I like this, but it's not okay. I move my hands on his chest and push him off me.

"What's wrong with you!?" I exclaim. "You want to cheat on me then act like I still want to fuck you and see you?" I furrow my brows and point at him. He opens his mouth to respond. "Was it not enough for you to have a side hoe or does your small 1 IQ brain doesn't process what the fuck I said. We broke up. We aren't together anymore." I say and tear up again. He stays quiet and just looks at me.

"Well you still haven't let me explain w-" He starts.

"No." I interrupt. "When I'm ready to hear your shit ass excuses that's when you can tell me." I stand there and wait to see if he was gonna say something. Though nothing was exchange. I turn and head to class as my vision is getting blurry again. I wipe my eyes as I approach the class room. Sighing, I grip the door and head in.
------
Lunch is just around the corner as I look at the clock counting the seconds. As my eyes were glued to the clock I could feel the vibration of my phone. Before I could check the notification the bell rings. Everyone starts to file out the class, quite fast.

I take out my phone and check that Mettaton had texted me. I call him instead of responding with a message.

"Darling! Where shall we meet for lunch?" He asks as I here people through the other line.

"Can you find Sans? He can probably help you so you don't die from all your fans." I say as I search for the skeleton myself.

"He's with me! We had class together!" He exclaims as he was also talking and saying 'Hi' to the other people.

"Tell him to teleport you guys to the roof, I'll be right there." I say as wait a moment to check that Mettaton heard through all the chaos. "He-"

"I'll alright! I'll meet you there!" He says and hangs up.

Please don't take long. Oh maybe I should message everyone else.

Before putting my phone away I text our group chat and make sure we'll be meeting on the rooftop. Much more private area. I continue towards the rooftop entrance.

"Y/n!" I hear someone say. I turn before entering the area where the rooftop entrance is. I see that Rose was following behind. I stop to let her catch up. We continue walking and before we go up she stops and grabs my arm gently. "Hey, I know maybe you don't want to talk about it but I'm sorry a-" I sigh as she stops immediately.

I hug her gently as hugs me back.

"You don't need to worry. Yes what you guys did was disrespectful but hey at least I'm not being led on. Don't worry we're still best friends." I say as I release from my hug then slap her head gently. "Just don't do that next time okay?" I turn to head up the stairs with Rose following behind. I open the rooftop door; the sun glares down the ground, though it's quiet with some birds singing.

"Wait! We're going!" I hear Undyne behind us. Rose holds the door before it closes. Following Undyne is Alphys and Jazz. "Thanks." She says. I continue to where Mettaton and Sans are located. I could see Mettaton waving his arms around. As I approach I notice that Sans was lying down with his cap and hood hiding his face. Probably napping. I sit down next to them as everyone else follows.

"Where's Papy?" Mettaton asks as he looks at the door. No one response, we all didn't know where he was. "Should we cal-"

"METTATON!" Papy says as he opens the door. Mettaton stands and heads towards him. They hug, embracing eachother.

"I missed you!" Mettaton exclaims. They let go as they come back to sit with us.

"SORRY I TOOK A WHILE! I HAD TO DO SOMETHING REAL QUICK." Papy says as he makes himself comfortable next to Mettaton. Rose goes up to Mettaton and whispers in his metallic ear. His eyes gleam as he nods. Moments later music starts to play through Mettaton's speaker on his body.

"U-Uh, A-" I hear Alphys yelp and see that Undyne pulls her up to dance. I smile and turn to Jazz talking with Mettaton and Rose. While Papyrus is listening to them. I stand up and walk towards Sans. I sit next to him and take off his cap and hood.

"Hey, bonebag. Wakey! Wakey!" I say and shake him slightly. He groans softly.

"You're interrupting my nap." He says groggily.

"So take a nap later." I say and sigh as I look at everyone enjoying themselves. I look down at him and see that he was slightly looking at me. He groans and sits up slowly.

"Wow look who finally woke up." Jazz says. He glares at her as she just snickers softly to herself.

"Y/n! Why don't you show us what you and Sans have been working on!" Mettaton exclaims. Rose and Jazz turn their attention towards us as Undyne and Alphys slowed down.

"Uh how about-"

"No." Sans says and decides to go back to napping. The music still plays in the background.

"We haven't even finished our duet yet." I start, "besides we still have to polish a lot of the routine." I say.

"Darling! You've been gloomy all day. Try and change that up a bit." Mettaton says and stands to head towards me. I shake my head in response of no as he stands in front of me and takes out his hand. "Please? Darling~" He smiles softly.

"Ugh, I hate you." I throw my head back and grab his hand. With his strength he pulls me to my feet. I yawn and look at bone bag.

"Come on darling we don't have all day!" Mettaton says as he snaps his fingers; he turns towards Sans. "Come on." Sans groans and stands up. "Yay! Okay what's the song?" Sans whispers to Mettaton as he gives a thumbs up. Sans heads towards me.

"Ready?" Mettaton asks. I nod and look at Sans. The music starts to play, the harmony enters my ears, as my body and feet follow along the music, exactly how we've been practicing. When I feel his boney hands touch my waist. I lock my eyes with his. As if time stopped, and started again. It was just us now; or so it felt. I keep moving as he let's go and we continue. I close my eyes as I feel him touch my hands once more, our feet taps against the tile floor.

Tile floor?

I open my eyes. He's gone. I'm alone, back at the hallway with the pillars, with Sans nowhere to be found. I turn around looking for help if anyone was there.

But nobody came

"Fucking shit! Not this again." I mumble as I look at the window with the symbol.

"Y/n!"

I here someone yell. I turn the way it was coming from.

"You need to stay still!"

The sentence echoes in my ear, as I see a chair. Like one you would see at a dentist appointment. There was a tray with vials of different colors; a syringe as well.

"What the hell." I touch the tray and examine the scenery.

"You wanted this! So I apologize if it hurts."

The voice now sounds familiar. I turn again to see if anyone has appeared. I see Sans in a lab coat, though he just stood there his back facing me.

"What are you doing?" I ask Sans, even though I knew it wasn't him.

"I'm sorry." He turned around but grew in size, he looked like...

Gaster!

I backup, hit the chair, landing on it. I feel my arms become strapped as my torso and legs do as well. I struggle to get out.

WAKE UP

WAKE UP

WAKE UP

"Help me!" I scream as I close my eyes. "Please!" I beg, as I felt a grip on my arm. "WAKE UP!"

I open my eyes gasping as if I was out of breathe after running a marathon. I look around to see my friends worriedly huddled around me.

"Darling are you okay?" Mettaton asks frantically. Ignoring his question I look around and try to make out where I was, but I couldn't quite figure it out. Not with everyone talking and my head currently spinning.

"Y/N!" I hear Papyrus say. I turn to every one else as their voices become muffled. 

"Where am I?" I ask looking down. I look over at them again, their voices still muffled. I look over at Sans as looks at me, with fear and concern. His expression scared, I've seen it to many times to count now. Every time I did, I can't erase it from my memory.

"Y/n," he says, he didn't sound muffled. Everyone stays quiet. "Your eyes." His body language changes, he seems concerned, uncomfortable even. Everyone else looks at me.

"Why are they red?" Rose asks.

Red!

Yes I'm alive! I took a bit of a Hiatus and well things right now are much better. I took some time to get myself mentally prepared for all these things I'll have to deal with now lol. but I 'm sorry for  this Chapter taking a shit ton of time. I had written it about twice and both times being this long and being erased. I didn't really like how they were coming out. Anyway I hope the long chapter makes up for the time I went, poof gone :)
